Abstract

The invention discloses a broadband Butler matrix feeder network with phase difference and frequency change. The feeder network has a working range of 2GHz-4GHz, and is provided with four input ports, four output ports, and two three-stage couplers. , four broadband couplers, three crossover networks, two phase compensators, two 45° phase shifters, and six broadband phase shifters, two of which are connected to matched loads at the input ports, and the other two input ports are independently fed Electricity, when the frequency changes from 2GHz to 4GHz, it can output signals with equal amplitude and phase difference from ±45° to ±90°, the change process is close to linear change, and the operating frequency range of the feed network exceeds one frequency multiplier; the present invention Using power combination to achieve phase difference frequency change, and realize the radiation characteristics of antenna array beam direction stability, the whole feed network structure is simple and compact, simple processing, light weight, low processing cost, wide working bandwidth, has a good application prospect .

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of communication antennas, in particular to a wideband Butler matrix feeding network with frequency-variable phase difference. Background technique [0002] With the popularization of 5G technology, the advent of the Internet of Vehicles and the Internet of Things, it marks that wireless technology will usher in a peak period of vigorous development. On the other hand, with the rapid development of electronic information, more and more devices will be connected to wireless communication networks. With the limitation of spectrum resource and bandwidth, improving the capacity of wireless communication system is a hotspot of people's research. Multi-beam antennas are widely used in wireless communication systems due to their multi-directional high-gain characteristics and the ability to generate different beams pointing in different directions with the same radiation aperture. At present, the main technology ...
